    The document contains examples and questions about determining the truth value of propositions, identifying rules of inference used in arguments, completing propositional logic proofs, and solving mathematics problems involving logarithms and compound interest. Several examples show determining if statements are propositions and evaluating their truth value. Questions assess identifying the rules of inference like modus ponens, disjunctive syllogism, and addition being used in arguments. There are also proofs to complete using premises and rules of inference. Mathematics problems involve finding interest earned, coupon amounts, logarithm values, and evaluating statements about logarithms.
